Welcome to Human Capital (Singapore)
People are the single, most potent, resource that an organisation has to achieve its goals. Over the years, the HR function has evolved and should no longer be seen as a separate supportive activity confined to HR managers and practitioners only.
Instead, the HR manager's role is to work with other managers to attain the organisation’s strategic goals. For managers with other line functions, people management is still an integral e… [+]lement of their responsibilities, regardless of their areas of specialisation and despite the fact that "HR" is not explicitly stated on their name cards.
Given that HR management is an essential part of the work of all managers, we at HCS Academy aim to train, develop, and coach professionals and people managers to be T-shaped managers. A T-shaped manager excels in his own work function while contributing significantly to other functions in the organisation at the same time.
Human Capital (Singapore) was incorporated in April 2009 as the national centre for Continuing Education and Training, and a provider of advisory services for human capital excellence. Operating as a partner of the Workforce Development Agency (WDA) in rolling out the Workforce Skills Qualifications (WSQ), HCS Academy convenes conferences and competency-based workshops, forecasts and assesses trends, and bring managers and leaders together to learn from one another.
Human Capital (Singapore) is a one-stop institution which offers training and people management capability development services, guides individuals in attaining career goals and advises businesses on organisational management.
HR Training
The people managers trained at HCS Academy can re-design critical HR processes, identify and build needed competencies, and deploy best HR practices to their work and to the changing needs of their organisations. HCS Academy also helps them foster practical learning in their workplace.
Personal Career Guidance
We offer a career advisory service that helps individuals achieve their maximum potential. HCS provides insights into career opportunities and prepare professionals for career development and job readiness to ensure a right fit. [-]

In the 2011 Academic Ranking of World Universities (also known as Shanghai Ranking), TUM was placed as the #1 university in Germany and as the 54th World University in accordance to QS’s World Ranking of 2011. Since then, TUM has gone on to be ranked as Germany's #1 University for 3 consecutive years, placed amongst other prestigious and internationally recognized universities, such as Harvard University, The University of Tokyo, and the National University of Singapore.
Besides being Germany’s #1 university, TUM enjoys many other accolades such as being the only German university to be awarded the “University of Excellence” award for 6 consecutive years (2006 – 2012) and enjoying the fourth-best ranking among all technical universities in Europe.
2- THE BEST LECTURERS THE WORLD HAS TO OFFER
5,000 papers & 18,000 citations only attest to the highest academic standards at TUM. Professors at TUM engage in both teaching and research at the same time, thus actively educating the bright minds of tomorrow with the most recent & advanced information in the field.

In all our courses, students undergo a period of thesis work alongside an internship. This serves to provide an avenue for students to test their theoretical knowledge, as well as inspire them to take what they have learnt and innovate the future. Students have gone on to pursue research-related careers, and more recently, the set-up of TUM Create (by NTU & TUM) to provide electro-mobility solutions for cities in the tropics have opened up opportunities for students to put to use what they have learnt in school.
5- STRENGTH IN DIVERSITY
As Thomas Friedman said, “The World is Flat”. Globalization is now an inevitable force that is here to stay, and at TUM Asia, we proudly boast a diverse enrollment of students hailing from over 28 countries. This means that we foster a vibrant learning environment where the student learns beyond the textbook but also through the lives of their counterparts. Ideas are synthesized across the diverse economic realities ad students learn to see from multiple vantage points, creating a capacity to solve problems in creative ways.

Programs to fit your passions
Winterline Global Education offers skills-based gap, semester and summer programs for young adults with an adventurous spirit and an interest in the world around them. You will learn real-world skills to prepare you for college, life and career while traveling the world and exploring your passions.
Produce a documentary film. Launch a business. Learn to scuba dive. Build a tiny house. Practice authentic Thai massage. These are just a few… [+] of the experiences you could have on our programs.
Do something new. Learn by doing. Prepare for life.
Welcome to Winterline Global Education!
We are a unique and innovative global gap, semester and summer program organization, offering high school graduates and young adults the opportunity to step out of the ‘rush to and through college’ and explore what they really want to do with their lives. We believe that high school graduates are much better prepared for college – and for a career – when they take the time to explore and pursue a wide variety of possible interest and skills.
What specific skills will students learn on the program?
Winterline Global Education introduces students to a wide diversity of skills – but all of them very practical. Students learn life skills such as cooking, care giving and personal money management; job skills such as customer service and negotiation; communication skills such as effective public speaking and the making of digital media presentations. These are just a few examples of the core competencies students will learn while on the program. Here is a more detailed listing.
How is the Winterline Global Skills Program different from other “gap" programs?
Most “gap” or “bridge” year programs offer students the opportunity to volunteer in another country, or to “get to know themselves better” and “make a difference in the world.” As praise-worthy as these efforts are, at Winterline we feel that in order for young adults to actually offer something, they need to have the skills to do so. A gap experience is an extremely valuable time when students can lay a foundation for a successful college experience by gaining a diverse set of skills and being introduced to a wide range of job and career options. Add to this the value of international travel and exposure to global issues and concerns, and you have a program unlike any other.
How will this program better prepare young adults for college or university?
The Winterline Global Skills Programs offer very practical life and career building skills. They are not “college prep” programs offering coaching in academic subject areas, yet by giving students a chance to explore their interests, gain skills and consider career options, they enter college or university with a much clearer sense of direction and purpose. They know what they want to get out of life and they know how to get there.
additional support and guidance in the college application and decision-making process.
Are there any prerequisites to joining your program?
There are no specific prerequisites to joining a Winterline Global Skills Program besides an inquisitive mind, a “can do” attitude, and a willingness to take risks, make mistakes, and grow through the process. Students are expected to be physically fit and flexible enough to meet the stresses and demands of traveling in the developing world.
Do you have an age requirement?
Applicants must be between 18 and 22 years of age as of Sept. 1, 2016.

SP Jain is a world-class business school with campuses in Dubai, Mumbai, Singapore and Sydney. Our education ethos is strongly influenced by our mission of crafting global business leaders for the 21st-century workplace. We pride ourselves on providing a learning experience that is modern, relevant and truly global.
GLOBAL EXPOSURE
Business may be universal, but there is no universal way of doing business. A conventional business education may give you the skills to excel… [+] in one country, but what about all the others?
At SP Jain, you will learn how business practices differ around the world. Our multi-country learning model provides a unique opportunity for global exposure and experience. This will give you the edge in a competitive global business environment.
MULTI-CAMPUS LEARNING
How you do business in Dubai is so different from how you do business in Singapore, Australia or even the United States. You may be a great success in your home country, but a miserable failure in another if you have not understood that business practices, political systems and consumer preferences can differ. Helping students understand this is something that we, at SP Jain, do uniquely through our multi-campus learning model. All of SP Jain’s full-time students live and study in not one, but in a minimum of three different cities. We have campuses in Dubai, Mumbai, Singapore and Sydney. So, in addition to learning the various tools of business (like most students), SP Jain students understand the global nature of business in the most compelling way – through actual exposure to diverse cultures, political beliefs, traditions and technological innovations.

Welcome to the College of e-Learning at City Colleges
At the College of e-Learning, we offer the same City Colleges courses but in an online format. Students enjoy the benefits of world class online resources, the best and most up-to-date study materials, and a relentless commitment to personal attention. City Colleges’ College of eLearning represents a completely novel approach to third-level professional education and examination preparation on the web.
Many of I… [+]reland’s leading lecturers in the areas of Law, Accountancy, Media, Entertainment & Journalism, Business, Computing & IT, the Arts, Criminology and Psychology have come together to offer students a different kind of educational experience, one where the learner’s needs are paramount, and his or her expectations are constantly surpassed.
How it Works
E-learning is proven to be a highly effective method of instruction. It has provided millions of learners with invaluable opportunities to progress their studies in a convenient, more affordable and efficient manner. A report commissioned by the US Department of Education (Evaluation of Evidence-Based Practices in Online Learning (2010)) found that “classes with online learning (whether taught completely online or blended) on average produce stronger student learning outcomes than do classes with solely face-to-face instruction”, and “.. that, on average, students in online learning conditions performed modestly better than those receiving face-to-face instruction.”
Taking a course with the College of eLearning at City Colleges couldn’t be easier. You will have access to the full complement of lectures (live or recorded – the choice is yours), exceptional course materials in downloadable format, and personal, one-to-one support from your course tutor. [-]

Staying connected to your courses, faculty, and other students is made easy by Canvas. The learning management system allows you the freedom to select receive notifications and course updates through email, text message, Facebook, and Twitter.
Virtual Crash Lab
In May 2014, Embry-Riddle Worldwide launched its Virtual Crash Lab, another innovation by the University to enhance online students’ experiences.
Embry-Riddle Worldwide faculty and staff, working with vendors Pinnacle Solutions and Unity, integrated the gamification of education into the College of Aeronautics curriculum.
Within this environment, students will be able to examine the aircraft accident scene, document evidence, and even interview survivors. This lab will enhance the learning environment for several of our safety courses.
During the exercise, students gather and submit data that satisfy certain accident investigation criteria: survival factors, human factors, aircraft structures, aircraft systems, operations and maintenance. Faculty can then assess student knowledge and comprehension by examining the evidence collected and explanation of findings. [-]

Our History
Humble Beginnings
1950s - 1960s
Like many institutions that grew to become towering entities in their fields, the Singapore Aviation Academy started off small.
The first civil aviation training school was established for air traffic controllers in 1958 at Paya Lebar Airport. It was attended by five local trainee controllers. Four years later, international participants were accepted for training in aeronautical information services and aeronautical cartography. They were sponsored under the international Civil Aviation Organization's Technical Assistance Programme.
Over the years, the School grew from being an in-house training outfit to a regional training centre. It relocated in 1972 to larger premises and better facilities at Seletar Airport.
Reaching Out
1970s - 1980s
The school was renamed as the Civil Aviation Training Centre (CATC), Singapore. It was then training overseas participants regularly in not just air traffic services but airport emergency services, airport management and operations. The CATC achieved an impressive track record for producing high quality training that was unique in the Asia-Pacific region. Its sophisticated and customised air traffic control training simulators were regarded as the most advanced in the region.
It was designated as an ASEAN Centre of Excellence in 1977 for training in air traffic control, aircraft fire-fighting and rescue services, as well as aeronautical information services.
Aiming High
1990s…..
In 1990, the Centre was renamed again, as the Singapore Aviation Academy (SAA). The change reflected its enhanced status and expanded roles as the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) geared up to upgrade the skills of aviation personnel to meet the challenges of the new millennium. SAA started operations from its present purpose-built training complex in 1992. It was officially opened on 2 Nov 1992 by Mr Mah Bow Tan, the Minister for Communications. Constructed at a cost of US$50 million, the complex is equipped with a comprehensive range of facilities to create unique total training environment.

The need for a US-style medical school
The beginnings of the Duke-NUS medical school can be traced to 2000, when Singapore launched an ambitious Biomedical Sciences Initiative designed to make the country the biomedical hub of Asia, and to attract both research and health sector manufacturing capabilities to Singapore.
In the Initiative, the government planned to spend more than S$3 billion over five years to accelerate development in the biomedical sciences.… [+] It offered incentives to attract companies to Singapore, and was funding research institutes devoted to genomics, bioinformatics, bioengineering, nanotechnology, molecular and cell biology, and cancer therapies.
In 2001, a Medical Education Review Panel chaired by Lord Oxburgh of England evaluated the plan and recommended that Singapore establish a graduate medical school (Duke-NUS) to produce the highly trained medical leaders needed to support the Biomedical Sciences Initiative.
Duke-NUS is intended to complement the National University of Singapore's existing undergraduate medical school, based on the British model of medical education, in which students enter medical school after completing their Singapore-Cambridge General Certificate of Education (GCE) Advanced Level examinations (or equivalent) and then pursue a five-year curriculum towards a medical degree.
According to the Ministry of Education, the establishment of a graduate medical school will increase the supply of doctors practicing in Singapore, give the country the flexibility to produce more physicians to meet future needs, and train doctors who are exposed to clinically-related research, thus increasing the nation's capacity to develop a vibrant biomedical hub.
Duke and the National University of Singapore signed a formal agreement in April 2005 under which the two institutions would partner to establish a new medical school in Singapore.
Under the agreement, the Singapore government has made a significant investment over the first seven years to establish Duke-NUS as part of Singapore’s strategy to become a leading centre for medical research and education.
Following the exceptionally strong progress in the first phase, on 30 November 2010 the Singapore government signaled their resounding support by extending the Duke and NUS strategic collaboration in education and research by another five years.
The school's curriculum is patterned after that of the Duke University School of Medicine. The school is part of the National University of Singapore system, but unique in that it is overseen by a Governing Board, including a Duke representative who has veto power over any academic decision made by the Board.
Victor J. Dzau, MD, chancellor for health affairs at Duke University, serves as Duke's representative on the Board. [-]
